If the question was what kind it is �

Just kidding as usual...

Just let us know if it is still working, would be interesting being looking like a trash find.

Be careful with that. ANYTHING could be on it, including computer viruses etc.
A common way for some computer viruses to spread, is via USB flash drives of unknown origin.

Yes of course, good to mention!

Grogster said A common way for some computer viruses to spread, is via USB flash drives of unknown origin.

But normally on easily working ones, this way would be even super-creative, but generally you are right, never get risky with such issues!

Or ... the former owner smashed it for screwing up his Computer before.

So actually anything is possible.
